Abstract

Indonesia’s status as the world’s largest archipelagic state depends heavily on small-scale fishing vessels, whose legality, safety, and access to state support remain uneven. This study aims to analyze how shipping governance is applied in the management of a Small E-Pas outlet in Pangkil Village, Bintan Regency, and what this implies for traditional fishers. Using a qualitative case study based on document analysis of regulations, official reports, and local media, the research examines the implementation of governance principles of transparency, accountability, participation, and effectiveness. The findings show that the outlet has enabled the measurement and registration of dozens of vessels under 7 GT, strengthened fishers’ legal identity, and facilitated access to subsidized fuel and safety equipment, while introducing a more systematic culture of risk prevention. However, persistent constraints include limited digital literacy among fishers, dependence on a small number of technical staff, and fragmented data management and coordination between KSOP, KPLP, and local government agencies. The study concludes that the Small E-Pas outlet represents a promising yet partial form of shipping governance, and that sustained outreach, integrated digital information systems, and collaborative forums with coastal communities are needed to ensure that E-Pas-based documentation genuinely supports safe and equitable coastal development.
